Windows 7: Windows 7 SP1 leak tomorrow!

Robert, if there was a thread about how good the new Opera is and you posted there your opinion about how you really do not like it, it would be the right thing to do and not OT. It would be your opinion about the matter in question. Maybe not using those words (useless product, you hate it) but still it would be your opinion and accepted as such.

I re-read this thread. I did not find a single post about leaks being useless or somebody hating them. In fact, the word 'hate' is only found in your post.

I admit I am old school: no cracks, no leaks, only official and licensed stuff, only legal software. In my opinion, it should not mean I am not allowed to express my opinion. I would like you to explain me why shouldn't I and others not using leaks tell our opinions in a civilized and polite manner?

You are right. I did not want to hurt you or anyone. I respect your knowledge and sharing your opinions. I just wanted to stay on topic. May be we should open a new thread about "What we think about leaked softwares"

If I understand you correctly, you are saying that for instance when somebody posts the news about already expected and waited IE9 being finally published, only those who like it and are using IE should be allowed to post on that thread? Those not liking it or not using it should not post on that thread?

I have a different opinion. A free world (almost, anyway), a free forum. A right to express our opinion in every matter in question.

I agree. Nothing wrong with agreeing to dis-agree as long as it doesnt resort to bashing eachother..

We may not all share the same opinion or viewpoint, but that doesn't necessarily mean either one are wrong.

Although the SP1 leak news is interesting and I will keep an eye on it, I won't run anything leaked like this on my machine, regardless of its source.

Unless that source is MS themselves (as in a Beta or RC version) then I may try it.

Windows 7 SP1 leak tomorrow!

Yesterday XP, Today Win 7, Tomorrow Win 8, Day after tomorrow what?As I write this post on notepad on a barebones Windows 7 with no other applications running, I noticed the memory consumption is 476 MB.
Out of curiosity I compared this with the same article in notepad on a similar barebones Win XP with no applications running, and the memory consumption is...
